Remember: When a Republican politician cries that "spending is out of control," be sure to respond "tax cuts for the rich are out of control." The massive amount of revenues lost to our government over four decades of Republican tax cuts for the rich track with the massive increase in our debt. 🤔

If you let evil in, it spreads. As much as Trump and his cronies were crooks and criminals before, the amount of corruption and crime they engage in now will shock you. People still feel uncomfortable calling Trump what he is: Evil. They had best start seeing him as he is, before it is too late.

Trump and his cronies are not engaged in "shock and awe." Just "shock." Note to Media: Stop using phrases, labels and names that Trump comes up with to serve himself...but don't reflect the reality of his incompetence and love of chaos.

Tariffs won't help Americans. They are something that Trump will use to serve himself. Still, there is the usual hucksterism involved, as with anything Trump does. His "beautiful tariffs" campaign slogan of 2024 was a con man's pitch, just as "a big, beautiful wall" was in 2016.

Trump just handed to an IMMIGRANT the most personal information on almost every American citizen. What are we missing here? 🤔

We wonder which Americans voted to have all of their personal identification information transferred from government computers to private computers owned by a multibillionaire on drugs. 🤔

The destruction of our alliances and foreign trade has nothing to do with benefitting Americans. Dictatorships seek to sever outside links that influence the politics and economy of their country, challenging their total control. The Republican Party is constructing its dictatorship, by all means.

A fact about the 2020-21 coup attempt that ended on 1/6/21 has always been neglected: That the Republican Party as a whole was involved in that operation, not just Trump. -- A fact being ignored today? The Republican Party is involved in the operation, going on now, to set up a dictatorship.

The criminal Republicans are doing terrible things to our country. How to begin to protest and push back? Hold back your purchases. -- Want to eat out? Take a pause. -- Buy something you don't absolutely need? Put it off. -- Avoid Amazon and Tesla. -- Use your buying power, before you lose power.

Memo to Democrats: The "arc of history" does not "bend toward" your victory, when you insistently push things that most voters do not like and even fear. You are talking to each other, as if everyone else agrees with you, because you are so smart. That's why you are not ready to take on Trump.

Prediction: Hegseth will be out as Secretary of Defense, before the year is over. He is a known drunk, incompetent, and sexual abuser. He is punishing honorable officers, and he has alienated the women who serve throughout the military. He is a Trump stooge. Who will want to help him succeed?

In true dictator style, Trump now has soldiers stand at attention behind him, as he addresses his submissive supporters in the White House.

As other dictators have demonstrated, if you can convince enough people that there is a "deep state," they will happily help you, as you construct a dictatorship with which to rule over them.

In his private life, Trump used chaos to grift money. In his political life, Trump uses chaos to grift power. Chaos is not a byproduct of Trump's behavior. It is the objective.

Watching Trump is often confusing. -- Are we watching a criminal mind at work? -- Are we watching a sociopath? -- Are we watching both? What is the dividing line between mental illness and criminality?

That PIECE OF S*IT Trump has directed the Justice Department to deliver a message to the police officers who were injured by the 1/6/21 terrorists (whom he had sent to attack the Congress that day and whom he has now pardoned): They are no longer victims. Call Trump what he is. A POS. 😡

Whatever chaos, destruction or repression Trump brings to us and America, it will only reinforce the fact that he is a piece of s*it.

@therickwilson.bsky.social Trump is the epitome of moral rot and corruption. As Jesus said of the Pharisees: "For you are like whitewashed tombs, which outwardly appear beautiful, but within are full of...everything unclean."

The three tools that Trump uses to gain power and then gorge himself on America's wealth by means of grifts are: First, promotion of resentment. Second, promotion of chaos. Finally, promotion of violence.

The wicked genius of our tech broligarchs: 1. They use algorithms to addict their social media viewers and increase their profits; 2. The algorithms tear us apart, polarizing our society and politics; 3. With the money they make and the divisions they create, they expand their political power.

Trump's corrupt "tech bro" supporters are our new "broligarchs," who intend to work with Trump -- like other oligarchs with other dictators around the world -- to ensure that his dictatorship ensures their profits.

The J6 thugs Trump released are free to wander around and intimidate those who oppose Trump. They will be a gang run by Trump with no fingerprints. Democratic-run State governments need to monitor and arrest them for any violations of State law, which Trump cannot thwart. Cowardly Republicans won't.

@adamkinzinger.bsky.social The DISGUSTING COWARDICE of Republicans in Congress: The police who saved them on 1/6/21, when Trump sent a mob to attack them, are humiliated, as Trump frees the January 6th terrorists. Not one of those Republicans condemns this betrayal of the police who saved them. 😡
